Joshua Copeland's cyber security moniker is "The Unpopular Opinion Guy", while most of us in security roles have been that person with an unpopular opinion at least a time or two, Copeland turned it into both a book and a bit of a movement through numerous posts on Linkedin about many of the challenges in our industry.

That said, this is not a mud slinging episode, Joshua had numerous, pragmatic examples of both the problem space and ways to address them. There are a lot of misconceptions about cyber security but there are also a wide array of real world impacts in our daily lives making this a very difficult area to master. Mr. Copeland has some of the unlock codes, making for another compelling episode.

While this episode can not be considered legal advice the chance to listen in on the ideas and opinions of from someone on the frontlines of this emerging risk vector should not be missed.

While cyber security is a global problem, economics and politics dictate different solution requirements. The Canadian Cyber Assessment, Training and Experimentation (CATE) Centre is both cutting edge and focused on Canadian cyber resilience at both a regional and national level.
